What's the deal with ESA?

Emotional Support Animals... Okay, I suppose there are a select few people who are so emotionally in need of support that they need their pet (animal) with them everywhere; but seriously, how did this become such a big thing?

It's an excuse for snowflakes to have their fluffy with them.
I can see for PTSD or seizures or the blind but that's about it.

@abe182 It's ridiculous in my opinion... or has gotten so. Now you can get your snake/lizard/cat/dog/bear or whatever certified online by paying a few bucks.

@frequentlyme The online certifications aren't even real certifications. Only a doctor can approve an
ESA.
@abe182 PTSD and blind cases have actually service animals. Emotionally support animals are not trained, covered by service animal laws/ rights and are glorified pets.
